Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 4 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
- ½ cup pumpkin puree
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 1½ teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- ½ cup gluten-free graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup white chocolate chips
- ⅓ cup sugar
- Dark chocolate chips (for garnish)
- Optional: orange food coloring
Instructions
- Line a small baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt together the butter, cream cheese, pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, and pumpkin pie spice.
- Once melted, stir in the graham cracker crumbs and white chocolate chips until fully incorporated. Add optional food coloring if desired.
- Cook until the mixture thickens slightly and pulls away from the sides of the saucepan; then remove from heat.
- Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours or until firm.
- Once chilled, slice into strips and roll each strip into balls, shaping them into pumpkins by flattening the tops slightly.
- Roll each truffle in sugar until coated and use a toothpick to create lines for texture.
- Top each truffle with a dark chocolate chip to mimic a stem.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
